Lynnette Ramsey + Victoria Yong We aimed to create a skirt that would rise and widen when a button on it is pressed. This skirt would allow the user to change according to comfort, as a wider skirt could feel less warm to wear in a hot climate.

This let us focus on the functionality of the mechanism instead of making the aesthetically wearable full form.
